Green --- CEC

So, does this shed any lights on whether this is an ASW helicopter or not?
Which helo is longer ? Z18 or Z20?
Could Type 055 take on 2 x Z18?
Can somebody explain how capable are Chinese at Anti submarine warfare , cause i heard American submarines are quieter then a school of small plankton thats really quiet , my uncle Jack told me this hes a retired WW2 submariner , Uss Caiman SS 323This Z-20 is a GP versian for the navy and not a specialised ASW version. The ASW version will field a bigger search radar underneath
